OK2Say

Overview

If you see something that seems out of the ordinary, say something to Security.

UFV's Safety & Security department not only responds to emergencies on campus but we also work hard to prevent them, and you can help.

The OK2Say program is intended to improve safety on campus by encouraging everyone to speak up when they see something out of the ordinary. By saying something, you can improve safety on campus. Any number of small things may be indicators that a situation could lead to an incident or hazard. Trust yourself.
